Birchbox Breakdown

Ever since the Olsens have been old enough to vote, we’ve been trying to mimic their perfectly dewy, so-healthy-it-glows skin. So we’re pumped to add these pearly highlighters to our secret stash. The one-of-a-kind formula subtly reflects light to make skin look fresh and youthful. Plus, the extra-fine shimmer particles won’t settle in fine lines—they actually soften the look of wrinkles. Mix the versatile formula with your foundation or moisturizer, or just apply directly to face and body.

How it Works

This liquid illuminator subtly reflects light to make skin look fresh and hydrated. Plus, the extra-fine shimmer particles won’t settle in wrinkles—they actually call attention away from fine lines (at least until you wash your face). Try Movie Star for a pinky pale glow, or reach for Paradise for a bronzier effect. But beware: a little bit goes a long way.

How to Use

Pump a drop onto the back of your hand. Pick up a little bit of product with your fingers and blend sparingly on the highest points of your face (brow bones, cheekbone, cupid’s bow) and along your collarbone. Or, mix one pump with foundation for an all-over glow. Skip the finishing powder, though, since using it will undo your dew. Note: A small amount is all you’ll need to get party ready.

beautifully subtle glow!

I got the color "Movie Star" and I'm pleased with it so far! This color is a gold/neutral shimmer that is subtle but buildable- perfect for my first liquid highlighter. As the description says, the shimmer particles are extremely fine, so the end look isn't glittery or oily looking. The pump does distribute way too much each time though, I guess I'll have to spread the excess on my collarbones or something.

Great

Just about to run out of a small sample I got of this produce elsewhere. I love love it!!! Sheer pink tin on my cheeks and good to go. Only issue I have is the pump. It gives you about 5x too much :/ wasteful

Beautiful colors

I really liked this product. There are lots of great colors, but I'd like to try more. Unfortunately the color didn't stay as long as I had hoped for. Either way I'd still use this item if it was included in my box.

Great product!

I really liked this one! I got two samples in one box by mistake, and they're not lying when they say a little goes a long way, so it's definitely worth the cost. I usually use just a drop or two, and swipe it on under my cheekbones for a little extra glow. You can use a slightly larger amount and blend it with your foundation, or be lazy and just smooth small amounts of it around on top afterwards like I did. I thought this made my skin look dewey and fresh without seeming oily! Sometimes foundation can look chalky or heavy, and this lightened it right up so it looked like your natural skin! Would definitely recommend.
